Our youth camps (Teen, Tween and Kid) are offered on the same weeks and duration to make it easier on parents and guardians of children of multiple ages when it comes to transportation and drop off/pick up times. Each age group will have separate instructors, age and skill appropriate curriculum and often go to different locations. We may separate the participants within each age group according to ability and goals. Of course, there will also be plenty of opportunity to socialize and have fun with friends of differing ability.
